The initial contributors are amongst participants of an existing initiative (The School Hasselt), but it will be open for other people who are keen to contribute to this collective endeavour (relevant individuals, collectives and institutions who might have a valuable contribution to the blueprint). Anyone who contributes (by editing or adding content) may include her/his name in this list, together with a short bio, the motivation to participate on the project and a link to a website or portfolio.
I am a designer creating environments and moments. My multi-media practice MaisonCaro focusses on narrative structures and multi-sensorial experiences in three-dimensional space. I am an educator at LUCA School of Arts in the dep. interior design & scenography, living in Ghent. How to convey messages, provoke reflection and leave behind layered impressions? Setting and researching these conditions are central in my practice, hence my interest in this project. Ultimately how can we design education as an ongoing learning experience?

I am a designer, educator and researcher living in Brussels. I have been undergoing a PhD in the Arts with LUCA School of Arts (KU Leuven) since March 2014, in the wider context of the project TRADERS (Training Art and Design Researchers for Participation in Public Space). Since I finished my bachelor studies in Industrial Design at the Jorge Tadeo Lozano University (Bogotá, Colombia) in 2009, I have been very interested in the (alternative, self-organised) pedagogical aspect of creative practices.
